Had way too much fun making tree concepts, so turned it into a series to show a potential lifespan of a forest, the deteriation snow can have snapping branches under weight, moss growth, tree sicknesses and in the end a wildfire and fresh sprouts. Then I jhad to hold myself back adding animals and these "miniature" narratives, the crows showing up, then getting scared off as the owl moves in (and owl usually symbol of coming doom) then the fire and burning crow on the ground and in the end a crow and moose skull...again, way too much fun, think I could draw plants and animals for the rest of my life after reading up more on the Hudson River Art Movement (check them out if you haven´t, crazy skilled artists)
